In this video, Lukie is joined by Anderson Perez, who is part of Boxeo Urbano Network (https://www.youtube.com/@BoxeoUrbanoNetwork/videos). He recently wrote this article: https://andersonperez.substack.com/p/el-flash-cubano-contra-la-presionWhich I think most people should like if you enjoy my content. We talk about the big fight of the weekend (at least for us) which is heavyweight Frank Sanchez versus Richard Torrez Jr. The bout is for IBF title eliminator, meaning the winner should land a title shot, but most importantly, it is a crossroads fight for both. Torrez has always been seen as a small heavyweight and Sanchez is the great unknown after being stopped by Agit Kabayel. The conversation evolves into Perez's thoughts on limitations on Cuban boxing, while unpacking some of the issues from a marketing standpoint fighters face. In the final bits of the podcast, we talk about Yoenli Hernandez and Osleys Iglesias.Timestamps0:00 Fight preview9:10 Sanchez underrated? 11:20 Richard Torrez, the next great U.S. heavyweight? 14:40 Perez brings up his issues with the Cuban boxing style22:15 Cuban boxing will never have a superstar? 31:25 Yoenli Hernandez37:00 Osleys Iglesias

Plus, junior welterweight Keyshawn Davis won his rematch against Nahir “Woo” Albright, BUT he missed weight for the second time in three fights. This is not to be overlooked; yes, it was smaller in this instance, but it is a trend. What is bigger in your opinion, the fight result or the weigh-in story? Also, Brian Norman Jr gets a quick second-round stoppage win over Josh Wagner. Yan Santana won a close (and debatable) unanimous decision victory over Cristian Cruz. Oh, and Kelvin Davis won an uninspired split decision over Pete Dobson. On the way out, we talk about welterweight Paddy Donovan and his win over Karen Chukhadzhian. It was an IBF title eliminator, meaning the winner will face the winner of the current belt holder, Lewis Crocker versus Liam Paro, next month.

It is his second first-round stoppage, but given his pedigree in 2020, Team Great Britain Olympic silver medalist, when will he step up in competition? Since facing Liam Cameron, Whittaker has fought two opponents with little intrigue.

In this show, we talk about the odd week Golden Boy Promotions had. From losing two fights on Friday night's card to the drama between star-fighter Vergil Ortiz and the promotional entity, what is the future of the company? We also talk about the action from last night with Abraham Gonzalez of FightsATW.com, who was there live. Raul Curiel defeated Jordan Panthen in a middleweight catchweight bout, Jorge Chavez outpointed "Gucci" Manny Flores in their rematch, plus observations about the undercard. We also talk about Nikita Tszyu-Michael Zerafa and the odd ending to that fight. Then, we move to this week. It is the start of Zuffa Boxing on Paramount Plus. The fight card as of now will feature junior middleweight Callum Walsh vs Carlos Ocampo, Mexican Olympian Misael Rodriguez-Austin Deanda, and Julian Rodriguez-Cain Sandoval. We preview the match-ups and we talk about what we expect from the production. That same night on DAZN, a very good bout between, Jose Tito Sanchez and Jesus Ramirez Rubio will take place at featherweight. Then, the card Lukie can't wait to see: IBF beltholder Raymond Muratalla faces Andy Cruz. It could be for who is the best in the division, given the uncertain framework of the future of the division. Other notables include the return of Israil Madrimov at middleweight, Khalil Coe vs Jesse Hart, which is a great bout, and 2024 U.S. Olympic Bronze medalist Omari Jones. Super middleweight Ronny Alvarez is a fighter to monitor on this card as well.
In this episode, we are joined by boxing legend Raul Marquez in the first half to talk #SmithMatias and Zach of @TUSCPod to breakdown Nikita Tszyu vs Michael Zerafa, and #RochaCuriel2Dalton Smith shocked the world and knocked out the boogeyman, WBC junior welterweight champion Subriel Matias. One crushing right hand sent Matias to the canvas, and changed both fighters' trajectories for their career. In this show, we will have multiple guests as Dakota takes some time away from the show, as we unpack the biggest event in boxing this year so far. Other topics discussed: Can Emmanuel Rodriguez become a three-time bantamweight world champion after beating Fernando Diaz, coming off a layoff? Bantamweight Jeyvier Cintron knocked out Victor Sandoval in a Round of the Year contender. Also, Junior welterweight Nestor Bravo scored a second-round one-punch highlight reel knockout against Pedro Campa.Then, we shift to Agit Kabayel. How good is he? My gut says really good. He stopped Damian Knyba on Saturday night. We talk about his recent run, and where he stands in the division, as well as his unique fighting style. Plus, we talk about Jadier Herrera, the new interim WBC lightweight world champion, who stopped Ricardo Nunez. Herrera hit the deck in the fight and came back to win. He could be elevated to full champion if Shakur Stevenson stays at junior welterweight after the Teofimo Lopez fight. Then, we preview next week. The big fight is on Friday night. Alexis Rocha will rematch Raul Curiel in a DAZN main event. The first bout ended in a draw. Curiel is training with Robert Garcia. Will that be a factor? The co-feature will see Manny Flores vs Jorge Chavez in a regional rematch at junior bantamweight, featured on a marquee card. Notables on the undercard are Joel Iriarte, Cayden Griffiths, and John “Scrappy” Ramirez. Plus, we also talk about Australian boxing. Nikita Tszyu will face Michael Zerafa in a middleweight fight.0:00 Raul Marquez on Dalton Smith-Subriel Matias37:50 Agit Kabayel 46:22 Jadier Herrera 52:30 Nikita Tszyu-Michael Zerafa01:04:48 Undercard bouts to follow01:08:23 Alexis Rocha-Raul Curiel II1:15:30 Undercard

In this podcast, Lukie and Dakota talk about Amanda Serrano's win over Reina Tellez. It was her first fight at featherweight for some time. Tellez was a late-sub replacing Erika Curz. We talk about Serrano's career currently and what she has meant to the sport. Also, WBA lightweight titleholder Stephanie Han defeated Holly Holm in the co-feature, and Alexis Araiza announced herself on a major stage, upsetting former titleholder Ebanie Bridges. Plus, Jonathan “La Bomba” Gonzalez outclasses Yankiel Rivera. We also touch on some undercard bouts, such as Chris Echevarria vs Gabriel Bernardi and Abner Figueroa vs. Edwin Rodriguez. Then, we shift our focus to this week. Subriel Matias will put his 140lbs title on the line against Dalton Smith. How do we see it? Also on the undercard, Emmanuel Rodriguez's return after losing his title, plus Henri Cedeno versus Alfredo Santiago, and Nestor Bravo vs. Pedro Campa? Then, Dakota's guy, Agit Kabayel, will have a German homecoming against unbeaten Damian Knyba. A notable co-feature will see Jadier Herrera facing Ricardo Nunez for the interim WBC lightweight title.
